Stressed? Here Are Ways To Get Breaks
Connect With Loved Ones
Connect with loved ones throughout the day to brighten your mood. Send a brief text to your husband, go outside to call your parents, or check on a friend online. It will increase the amount of oxytocin in your brain, and you will feel warm and relaxed.
If you work, schedule a coffee or lunch break with your favorite coworkers. Endorphins and dopamine are essential for our well-being and comfort, and these increase when we socialize.
